I visited my local Starbucks in Brooklyn, New York this morning to give it a try. This drink is probably going to be a hit with anyone who likes to get their Halloween fright in the form of lots of sugar. But there's also surprisingly tart taste of a green apple.

According to the chain, the new blended beverage has a “ghastly” green body made with Frappuccino Crème infused with flavors of apple and caramel and topped with a red mocha drizzle and pink whipped cream aka “zombie brains”.

Like many of Starbucks' seasonal sweet treats, I found the drink to be quite heavy and filling, so go for the tall size if you get one. But I wasn't even able to finish that.

Of course, the new drink is another made-for-Instagram type of beverage, just like the Unicorn and Rainbow drinks last spring. As this sugar bomb is also a blanket of calories (a grande Zombie Frappuccino has almost 300 calories), so it's probably a good thing it's only around for one week.

“When brainstorming a new Frappuccino flavor for this Halloween, we started by thinking about a Halloween party and monster mash,” Jennica Robinson of Starbucks beverage development team, said in a statement.

“We had already invited Frankenstein and vampires to the party, so we came up with another monster that could join the bash.”

This isn’t the first Halloween-themed drink that Starbucks has launched. In 2014, the chain introduced the world to the Franken Frappuccino in 2014. The vampire-themed Frappula Frappuccino came out in 2015 and 2016. More recently, there was, of course, the Vampire Frappuccino released in London.
